In Praise Of Wild Wild Horses On the Walls
The first four rooms all boast dramatic works from Roberto Dutesco's Sable Island series. Sable Island, also known as the "Graveyrad of the atlantic" is home to over 300 wild horses, who continue to draw the attention of talented photographers like Mr. Dutesco.
• 1.,3. From the famed Wellesly home designed by Christine Lane Interiors.
• 2. Thom Filicia's Big Chill showhouse continues to be one of the most exciting from the past year. His use of the oversize Dutesco photograph has the perfect mix of drama and elegance.
• 4. While we love the large scale prints, even a small Dutesco photograph delivers a high, emotionally charged impact, especially in contrast to the pristine white room in Peri Wolfman and Charley Gold's Hampton country house.
Check out more of Dutesco's Sable Island pictures here.
Some of our other favorite wild horse photographs are from the illustrious hands of Claude Steelman and Lynne Pomeranz.
And what about you, are you digging the dramatic look as much as we are?

sigh, at the risk of sounding like a second grade version of myself, i don't think you can go wrong with horses in art.
I'm in love with these huge, colorful and slightly abstract horse paintings from Katie Upton. They are the size of my sofa and way out of my price range :( http://www.katieupton.com/
But I got my mom a print or glicee (sp?) a few years ago, and it's gorgeous.
I am glad this is posted so my want of horse images are validated, and so my significant other can see past the 12 year old girl in me.
One of my favorite photographers did a brilliant series of horses, they are here:
Thank you Melissaann, the Eastman photographs are beautiful.
I have been a huge fan of Michael Eastman and his photos are the best photographs of horses I have ever seen. He also helped when I reached out to him to try and ban sending american horses to be eaten for their horse meat in japan and europe. He loves his subject. I wish I could afford one of his large pieces but his book of his horse shots will have to do for now.
I liked the idea initially, but after seeing these five photos I'm already tired of it. Please, no more wildlife decor.
Heres a link to the picture that I want over my mantle- can't afford it at the moment though:(
I like the horse print and I like the hide pillows and ottomans in photo 1--but I'm not sure I'd want both in the same room.
My brother is a photographer and has some affordable horse photographs on his blog, if anyone is interested. Though, the buffalo is my personal favorite.
moke076, those are beautiful. Thanks for the link.
Simple. Elegant. Stunning.
i saw this one in an instyle magazine a few months ago
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_vYoIziS3lcA/SMVETxYdRiI/AAAAAAAABCQ/0mBYq_DkFPA/s1600-h/Francisco horse.jpg
i could definately deal with that on my wall
The Pioneer Woman has some hi-res horse photos you can download from her site: http://thepioneerwoman.com/photography/category/high-res-downloads/
I would like to print icy fog or sea of mustangs to hang above my piano.
http://www.howard-gallery.com/stevemessenger.html This artist does some really cool horse paintings. I love that he captures the funny, silly side of the horses.
I wouldn't do horses myself, but I really like the size and scale and style of the ones in #1 and #3.
OrangeG -- thanks for the link, I love her pics.
my friend is a graphic designer @ his gallery here is SoHo.

Franklin >Food & Dining > Incontro Restaurant
860 W Central St, Franklin, MA | Directions 0203842.089974 -71.432906
Mon. - Thu. 11am - 10pm;Fri. - Sat. 11am - 11pm;Sun. 11am - 9pm
Pleasanly surprised – I was nervous going here based on the mix reviews but was pleasantly surprised by the great food and atmosphere.
Will definately return.
Poor customer service and rude – I was excited about trying Incontro as it's in the neighborhood and Franklin does not have many mid range eateries. The customer service was awful. Our food took way too long to arrive, the wait staff was inattentive and when we asked to speak to the manager he could not have cared less about our concerns and said there was nothing he could do. He was somewhere between rude and indifferent.
Very disappointing as the restaurant has a decent décor and feel when you first arrive.
Customer Service – Restaurant is good, However don't ever try to let the owner know of a problem because he doesn't want to hear from his customers. It's to bad because he has lost a good customer that lives across the street. Good Luck improving customer service by ignoring your patrons.
Excellent Food & Service – My wife and I dined at Incontro this past weekend. We made a reservation 6:30 and were pleasently surprised that we were able to be sat right away. Our server was exceptional. Very attentive and pleasent.
We ordered the baked polenta for our appetizer which was outstanding. Our entree's were even better. My steak was perfectly done, a little salty, but very good. My wife ordered the Tuna. Again perfectly done.
All and all a very enjoyable evening. We will definitely be returning and recommending this restaurant to our friends and family.
Should be called "Incompetent-o" – The service here was so bad that after a while, it became amusing to watch this establishment's incompetence. The waitstaff was was rude and incompetent; drinks took 45 minutes to arrive, and we were prohibited from ordering from the bar. What the heck? I was carded three times for three drink orders, and we were not allowed to purchase drinks for anyone else in our party. The mandatory valet service was a ridiculous addition to night that ended up being focused around mocking this establishment's rude, incompetent and unclassy staff their overpriced menu. Never again will I go here, and I will actively tell others to not even give it a chance.
Incontro Restaurant – Wow, I thought I was the only one. I had reservations to there on my birthday. I arrived promptly at 8:00 pm
to find no available parking anywhere. I called the restaurant an spoke with the manager. He said I could park across the street. I told him we had just had a snowstorm, and there were no sidewalks.
He said what do want me do? I said tell the valet to take my car, and hold it until there is room.
They couldn't do that. It was a terrible experience. I wrote a letter to the owner three months ago...no response.
I will never go there. I tell everyone.
It's true - terrible management, experienced it first-hand – I have to echo the sentiments of several others that commented on TERRIBLE management!
Just moved to Franklin and was thrilled that there seemed to be 2 trendy restaurants in town ('3' and Incontro). We were warned that Incontro service was questionable, but wanted to judge ourselves. 1st time, experience was mixed. Apps/salad were good, but didn't like our entrees. Pork was dry and steak was just 'ok'. Waiter we had that night was great, so despite entrees, were willing to try again. Plus, ambience is nice.
So weeks ago, family was coming from out-of-town to celebrate 4 birthdays and decided on InContro. Tried to make reservations for 8 ppl but was told they "don't take" reservations but if we got there early, by 5:30p, no problem. The day we arrived (5:30), we were shocked to be asked if we had reservations! We explained that we tried and stated what we were told. The manager came over, explained complex terms/rules about reservations that didn't make any sense (like he was making it up as he went) in a very condescending way-NO TACT whatsoever! No apologies for misunderstanding/inconveniences -just coldly, that we'd have to wait 1 hr & 45 mins. We're not touchy-feely people that need apologies or sugary smiles, but this guy's demeanor was outright obnoxious, apathetic, and pompous! If he explained things in a more cordial manner, we wouldn't have been so p'd off about it.
BUT, b/c of the manager's lack of people skills, we walked out with money burning in our pockets to celebrate a big ocassion and very ill-feelings towards this place. The valet overheard us complaining about the obnoxious manager and he said that MANY customers have walked out complaining about him!
We went to 3 instead...was like a breath of fresh air after the nastiness we just experienced. Were welcomed by warm hostesses & positive energy enough to brighten our spirits. Never had a bad experience/meal there. So skip Incontro if you don't want to risk it. 3 is always a safe bet.
Good food and service, management should take a course in hospitality ! – When my niece and her family moved to Franklin in August 2007 we were delighted to find this lovely restaurant. Though we live in Florida we have already dined there four times. We have found the food to be well prepared and nicely presented. We have always found the wait staff to be personable and efficient.
This last visit with friends we had a one hour wait which was understandable on a Saturday night. The hostess suggested that we go upstairs for drinks and appetizers.When a table was ready two of us went downstairs in the elevator while the others settled the bill. We wound up being stuck in the elevator for 15 minutes our only communication being with an emergency operator who was ready to call the local Fire Dept. to come to our assistance. Finally the staff figured out how to open up the elevator door. When we did emerge, the manager was not at all solicitous, did not apologize and didn't even offer to buy us a drink or dessert for our trouble. He could have cared less. For that reason, we will never return to the restaurant. While the food and service may have always met and even surpassed our expectations, we find management's indifference to their clientele inexcusable.
WE WILL BE BACK! – We found Incontro to be excellent in every category. Unlike earlier reviewers, we felt that the waiters were absolutely wonderful---very attentive, affable, and informative. The food was superb, and the selections were creative and interesting. The presentation of the food was done exceedingly well, and the wine list was extensive.
Our one small criticism was the placement of a TV in the bar in the main dining room---this seemed out of place and somewhat ruined the otherwise lovely ambiance.
We will happily be coming back to Incontro!
Great foor, Great wine list – Having been to Bill Bradley's other restaurants, and his first in Sonoma, I was pleasently surpirsed to find he was all othe way out here in Franklin. With Mario now running the front end this is easily the best restaurant in MetroWest.
I've been there a number of times for both Lunch and Dinner and the food is unfailingly great. With the arrival of Mario a month or so ago the service is now up to the standards set by Bill's food. If you haven't been there in the last month or so please try it again as the service has VASTLY improved.
It really is a little bit of NYC food and service in Franklin MA at just about 1/2 the price.

|Head Coach
|(352) 588-8451
Coming to the Lions from Division I Saint Louis University, Conway was named the ninth head coach in program history on June 3, 2010.
During his third year Conways guided his team to its first ever Sunshine State Conference championship since the inception of the Sunshine State Conference softball championship in 1981. His efforts earned him the title of the 2013 Sunshine State Conference Coach of the Year. During the 40-16 season, the Lions batted .280 as a team, scored 263 runs, and collected 383 hits. The group also stole 142 bases, which broke Saint Leo's previous all-time team record for steals in a single season. After an outstanding regular season, the Lions earned a berth to the NCAA Division II South Region Tournament. In addition to the team's success, Coach Conway also taught two SSC Pitchers of the Week, seven All-Sunshine State Conference athletes, two NFCA All-South Region selections, and a Daktronics All-South Region First Team player.
In his second year, Conway led his bunch to a 22-win season. During the 54-game campaign, the group batted .274 as a team, stole 88 bases, and connected on 94 extra-base hits. Finishing the year on a season-high four game winning streak, Conway directed a pair of All-Sunshine State Conference athletes, one SSC Athlete of the Week, a CoSIDA Academic All-District selectee and a Daktronics All-South Region.
Conway guided the Lions to a 25-29 overall record, including a 9-15 mark in the Sunshine State Conference in his initial season at the helm. His coaching techniques allowed the Lions to hit over .300 as a team and steal 111 bases. He guided the Lions to a season-high four game winning streak and saw the his team finish in the top-five in the nation in double plays turned (27).
Conway has constructed an extensive and distinguished coaching resume, commanding both Division III Fontbonne and Division I Saint Louis' programs over the past seven seasons. During his tenure at Fontbonne, Conway stockpiled a 117-51 record, collected 40 St. Louis Intercollegiate Conference victories, made three NCAA Tournament appearances, and posted two NCAA Tournament wins. At Saint Louis University, Conway solidified himself as one of the top coaches in program history. He has instructed three Atlantic-10 First Team athletes, in addition to three second-team members and four All-Rookie affiliates.
Conway came to Saint Leo after a record-setting 2010 season for the Bilikens as they ended the year with their first-ever 30-win year. The team finished fourth in the Atlantic 10 by winning 12 conference contests and wrapped-up the season by posting a pair of victories at the Atlantic 10 Tournament.
In his first full season at the helm, Conway made an immediate impact for Saint Louis, leading the squad to a program-record 29 wins in 2007. In the midst of breaking 25 team and individual records, the squad earned their first appearance in the Atlantic 10 Championship and closed the campaign with a second-place conference finish.
The Bilikens followed with a third-place Atlantic 10 finish in 2008. The team registered an 11-8 conference mark, as well as posting the program's first back-to-back 20 win seasons (23 wins). The highlight of their season, however, came at the conference championships when the No. 3-seeded Bilikens made a run to the conference title game.
He led Saint Louis to a 12-6 conference mark and concluded 2009 with a third-place finish.
Conway began his collegiate coaching stretch in 2003 at Fontbonne University. While at Fontbonne, Conway turned a three-win squad in 2002 into a conference champion as his team registered a 23-14 record. As a result, the group chronicled its first NCAA Tournament appearance in program history. He garnered St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC) Coach of the Year and NCAA Division III Midwest Region Coach of the Year.
Following a second-place conference finish in 2004, Conway led the Griffins to their second NCAA tournament appearance in three years. On the march to the NCAA's, the team asserted themselves as SLIAC Conference Tournament Champions, as well as achieving a program-best 33-13 record.
Another NCAA appearance was on tap for the Griffins in 2006, as they once again snapped the school record for wins in a season with 34. In conference action, Conway's group amassed an 11-1 mark, while finishing the campaign as SLIAC Coach of the Year for the second time.
Still, his coaching career goes beyond the college ranks, as he helmed some of the best club and travel league teams in the Midwest. He led a pair of national powerhouses, St. Louis Chaos and the St. Louis Sluggers, to multiple Amateur Softball Association (ASA) and National Softball Association (NSA) regional and national appearances.
Conway received his undergraduate degree in business management/administration from Tarkio (Mo.) College in 1989 and has also served our nation as a member of the United States Coast Guard.
He is married to Kathy Conway, has three children, and currently resides in Land O'Lakes, Fla.

Brek Shea still moving the wrong way, at Stoke City and for the U.S. national team
Apr 28, 2013, 5:25 PM EDT
Thinking of buying stock in Brek Shea? Hmmm, you might be better to "sell" at the moment.
Another weekend has come and gone with the Stoke City winger nowhere in sight. If you're disappointed in the young U.S. man's inability to make progress up Tony Pulis depth chart, you've got nothing on Jurgen Klinsmann.
Shea did not play as Stoke scored an important 1-0 win over Norwich. (Geoff Cameron didn't start in this one, by the way, but did play the final half hour.)
The United States national team coach isn't exactly saying so – not with his words, at any rate – but if you listen to Klinsmann it seems clear that he is less than pleased with how Shea's transfer is working out. Or, better put, how it is not working out. Not for now, at least.
Listen to what Klinsmann had to say on Wednesday during that media summit, attended by a few U.S. journalists, including your ProSoccerTalk pal here.
Obviously they make their own decisions and they have to deal with the consequences, and by 'consequences' I mean with the situation they are facing. Brek Shea badly, badly wanted to go to Stoke City and now he's not playing there, at all. He's not even in the 18 at all, and he has to deal with that.
Klinsmann was asked if Shea discussed the winter move from FC Dallas to Stoke City.
Uh, no. No. Not really. I discussed it with [MLS vice president]Todd Durbin, but he badly, badly wanted that move. It is now what it is. It's not helping us if he's not in their first 18.
The interesting thing is that Klinsmann wasn't asked about Shea here. He was asked about Carlos Bocanegra, and answered dutifully. But then he used Shea as the better example of "decisions and consequences."
Shea has plenty of time, and all this could turn for him early next year, by September or so if he's playing regularly for Stoke.
But for this summer? Things aren't looking great.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"This save he date postcard was perfect for our destination wedding. The paper quality is excellent; which was a relief since they are not protected by an envelope. The proof was provided within 1 or 2 days and we received within 5 days of confirming the proof. There are not any other matching products, but this was not important to us."
"I not only love the way that the Save the Dates look, I loved the customer service of Wedding Paper Diva's. I originally ordered 10 copies, just to be sure I liked them, but ended up calling and reordering more. I sent in my photo originally taken from snapfish. They assigned a designer who emailed me saying that the picture quality was a little low and an original copy would turn out better. I sent the new one in and had the opportunity to review the final product before they printed. They pointed out that the city on the front of the card and the one I put on the back were different as well. I thought it was so thoughtful of them to point out these minor details instead of just printing and sending. LOVE THEM!"
"Thank you so much in having printed and provided such a beautiful "Save the Date" card. They are perfect. The quality, font, color was perfect. I will definitely be ordering my invitations with Wedding Paper Divas. Thanks again!"
"This was originally a postcard but I ordered it as a regular invittation. The card is beautiful. I couldn't have asked for anything better. I have gotten so many compliments on this card. I am very satisfied."
"My fiance and I were looking for a Save the Date that was out of the ordinary and laid back, just like our beach wedding in the Dominican. I'm not into frilly flowers or the normal save the dates with the couple smiling at you. This card was perfect. Because we're having a destination wedding, we wanted to send a little more info with the save the date than just the normal date and place. The fact that you could write a message to your guests on the back of the post card was the icing on the cake for us. They were PERFECT."

Breaking News! NZIFF Gifted
Last night NZIFF GM Sharon Byrne and I made our way through horizontal rain across the Wellington waterfront to joinOcean Design's 25th birthday party. We had no inkling that NZIFF would be the ones receiving the birthday present. And what a fine present it is.
Winding up a typically understated and heartfelt tribute to his clients, suppliers and staff, past and present, Ocean owner and Managing Director Blair Mainwaring began to allude in glowing terms to the values embodied by the company's most longstanding client. "Could this be?" I was venturing to think, when I was summoned to the microphone and the most longstanding client was presented with a magnificent cheque of photo-opportunity proportions - for $25,000.
I am not sure that my words of thanks adequately covered our endlessly renewable amazement and delight at the Mainwaring m.o. but I can hope that my stunned expression was all that was needed to rise to the occasion. Working with Blair and a succession of bright, inventive and highly engaged designers and artists at Ocean has been a highlight of festival work for a succession NZIFF staff. Just as it can be traced in the life of the films we've shown, the story of the last 25 years at NZIFF (and its preceding manifestations) can be read in Ocean's work for us.
Bravo Blair. Many Happy Returns, Ocean Design.

April 09, 2011
The Placer County Sheriff's Office, in consultation with the Truckee Fire Protection District, has issued a voluntary evacuation order for the Serene Lakes community near Donner Summit in Placer County. The order will remain in place until further notice, and Public safety officials are encouraging residents and property owners in the area to leave until the order is lifted.
The evacuation order was put in place due to the continuing discovery of propane leaks in the area, coupled with an explosion at an unoccupied cabin in the community on Friday night. During the evacuation, there is an around-the-clock Placer County Sheriff's Office presence in the community.
There will be an Evacuation Information Center opening the morning of Sunday, April 10, 2011, in the Judah Lodge at the Sugar Bowl Ski Area. The Center will remain open daily from 10 AM until 4 PM as long as needed. In addition, County staff will be available to respond to inquiries made to the Emergency Operations Center at 530-886-5310.
The explosion Friday night was at an unoccupied cabin and completely destroyed the three-story structure. The 10:19 p.m. blast sent debris flying hundreds of feet. The source of the ignition has not been identified, and no one was injured.
The public is being asked to stay out of the area as emergency crews and public safety officials deal with the growing problem of leaking propane tanks. More than two dozen sites in the eastern end of Placer County have been affected by leaking propane since the extraordinary snowfall in March. Nearly all of the leak-related sites have been in the Serene Lakes area. Placer County today issued a proclamation of local emergency, effective in March when leaks were first discovered.
The owners of the cabin that exploded were notified and they confirmed that the Bales Road cabin was unoccupied. The site of the explosion had not been identified as having a propane-related issue, but propane had been detected at an adjacent cabin, and that leak had been cleaned up.
An incident command post has been set up near Serene Lakes to deal with the increasing number of sites. Truckee Fire Protection District, along with the Placer County Sheriff's Office, and the Offices of Environmental Health and Emergency Services are continuing work on remediating the leaking propane.
The situation remains active as new leaks are detected. Warming weather has helped to dissipate some of the propane vapor that has leaked into the snowpack. Propane vapor is heavier than air and seeks the path of least resistance while flowing downhill similar to water. The thawing and freezing snow causes the snow to crust over making it harder for the propane to find a path out of the snowpack.
The weight of the extraordinary snowpack this year has damaged pipes, valves, regulators and tanks. While there are no street closures currently in effect, there are individual residences that have been closed off with snow berms and entry in those areas is prohibited until propane levels dissipate.
Accessing the buried propane tanks has proven to be a challenge. The use of regular snow blowers, front loaders and snow plows should not be used.
Anyone who smells propane or natural gas inside or outside a building should immediately exit the area and then call 911. They also should avoid smoking, starting engines or motors, turning on cooking appliances, using heating or air conditioning systems or using other ignition sources. They should also avoid any activity that can create a spark that might ignite propane. Even flipping on a light switch can ignite propane.
Safety tips for the proper care of propane tanks during severe weather can be seen by clicking the following link: Propane Safety .
Placer County will continue to issue updates as the situation dictates.

Shutdown Corner
NFL Draft Needs: Cowboys, Bears good bets to draft defensive tackle in first roundFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner21 hrs ago
Before the NFL draft on May 8-10, we'll be looking at all the key prospects and also breaking them down by position. In our "Draft Needs" series we will also examine which teams will be in the market at each position, looking to fill their remaining roster holes.
Dallas Cowboys: Signing Henry Melton from Chicago helps, but he is coming off a season-ending injury last year and if he just replaces Jason Hatcher, who had an unbelievable year before going to the Redskins. And Dallas lost future Hall of Famer DeMarcus Ware at end. Maybe the team brings back Anthony Spencer, who is still a free agent, but he's coming off major knee surgery and the fact that he's still unsigned tells you he's not going to fix everything. Dallas needs a lot of help, particularly on its horrible defense, and the line is a great place to start. A good inside presence is almost a must at pick No. 16, someone like Florida State's Timmy Jernigan or Pitt's Aaron Donald. NEED LEVEL: Extremely high
NFL draft: Q&A with UCLA LB Jordan ZumwaltEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner1 day ago
Jordan Zumwalt seemed destined to play football at Arizona State, considering his father was a scrappy, undersized pass rusher there and his mom also attended the school. Jordan, his parents and his brother and two sisters often would load up the family RV and roll down the highway from their Southern California home to Tempe to watch the Sun Devils play ever year.
But Zumwalt, a star player at Huntington Beach's Edison High School, switched gears — he was going to play for the local team instead, Pac-12 rival UCLA. Although it took him a little while to get going, the fiery linebacker finished his career strong (with a few bumps along the way) and now has positioned himself as an intriguing middle-round linebacker and special-teams prospect.
Although he's taking a huge class load this summer in order to earn his degree, the highly entertaining and loose-lipped Zumwalt was able to take a few minutes to chat with Shutdown Corner about watching his father play, getting recruited by Pete Carroll, getting hit by a car (on a scooter!), knocking out Logan Thomas and West Coast women.
SDC: Have you watched your dad's old games with him?
NFL Draft Under the Microscope: Alabama LB C.J. MosleyFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Leading up to the NFL draft on May 8-10, Shutdown Corner will examine some of the most interesting prospects in the class, breaking down their strengths and weaknesses.
C.J. Mosley Linebacker Alabama 6-foot-2, 234 pounds 2013 stats: 108 tackles (61 solo), 9 tackles for loss, 10 quarterback hits 40-yard dash: 4.63 seconds (unofficial time, at pro day)
NFL Draft Needs: Denver Broncos still need a linebacker, might draft a starterFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Before the NFL draft on May 8-10, we'll be looking at all the key prospects and also breaking them down by position. In our "Draft Needs" series we will also examine which teams will be in the market at each position, looking to fill their remaining roster holes.
Denver Broncos: John Elway's shopping spree improved the roster, but the GM did strike out and miss on finding a new inside linebacker. The Broncos kicked the tires on a few of the notable linebackers on the market but still haven't landed one, which puts them at the front of the line for a new inside linebacker in the draft. With a team that is built to win now, drafting for need makes sense, so it would be a surprise if the team didn't fix its patchwork middle linebacker issue early in the draft. The problem is they have the 31st pick. The Broncos might not have a chance to land C.J. Mosley, the top inside linebacker, but it's easy to see them ending up with a thumper like Wisconsin's Chris Borland. NEED LEVEL: Extremely high
NFL draft: Q&A with Oregon cornerback Terrance MitchellAnwar S. Richardson at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Oregon cornerback Terrance Mitchell has been told what he cannot do for years, so excuse him if he no longer cares about what other people think.
Mitchell is expected to be selected in the upcoming NFL draft, but not as a high pick. In fact, Mitchell requested an evaluation by the NFL draft board, and even though he didn't receive a favorable evaluation, he decided to forgo his senior year anyway. Mitchell was doubted coming out of high school, had to earn playing time at Oregon, and entering the NFL is just another battle he intends to win.
Despite not having a lot of pre-draft hype, Mitchell spoke with Shutdown Corner about the challenges he has faced so far, and how he plans to overcome those obstacles in the NFL:
Shutdown Corner: How has your pre-draft preparation been going?
Peyton Manning got an unbelievable amount of money to speak at Oklahoma StateFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Anyone who has followed along here for a while knows I respect Peyton Manning. He's a great player. He's not a bad interview either. He's a pretty sharp, funny guy. He's also one of the league's good guys, as far as charity work goes.
All that said, would I pay him $105,000 to speak for an hour? ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS? Oh my goodness, no. Nobody would.
Wait, Oklahoma State University really did pay Manning that much? Sigh. Never mind.
Manning, the Broncos quarterback and reigning MVP, spoke to about 4,250 Oklahoma State students at Gallagher-Iba Arena on Wednesday night. He spoke for 30 minutes and had a 30-minute Q&A session afterward. According to the Tulsa World,Manning told the students things like, "This is your world. Own it" and "Enjoy the journey, not the destination,"
Ravens reinstate troubled linebacker Rolando McClain, but will he get a chance?Eric Edholm at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
The Baltimore Ravens are giving Rolando McClain another shot. We think.
Interesting: Ravens reinstate Rolando McClain from reserved/retired.
McClain had retired from football and yet stated his intentions to come back this season, and the Ravens gave him a workout on Tuesday. But it didn't go well, per an NFL.com report, and all indications were that his career might be over when he showed up late, couldn't finish his conditioning test and didn't do everything that was asked of him.
Rolando McClain got his workout w the Ravens and I'm hearing it was NOT a roaring success. Didn't finish conditioning test, didn't do drills
So why did the Ravens change his status? It could be a procedural affair, and the Ravens plan to waive him at some point. But right now, he's on their roster.
Chad Johnson is back in football, with the CFL's Montreal AlouettesFrank Schwab at Shutdown Corner2 days ago
Chad Johnson is back in football.
It's not exactly what the one-time star receiver envisioned, probably, but it'll do. Johnson, who is mostly known for his time with the Bengals, signed with the Canadian Football League's Montreal Alouettes, the league announced on Thursday.
BREAKING: The @MTLAlouettes have signed @Ochocinco. Details to come. #CFL
IT'S OFFICIAL: @ochocinco puts pen to paper with @PoppJim. Bienvenue à #HuitCinq chez les #Alouettes! #CFL #LCF pic.twitter.com/yKkRlBwU7y
Dating is hard, but Packers fans now have a website to find true loveAnwar S. Richardson at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
It is hard being single and searching for the perfect companion. Your so-called friends try to set you up on dates with people who are only attractive to those with their eyes closed. Speed dating is the easiest way to condense a year of letdowns into an hour-long session. Online dating allows romantics to sort through incompatible prospects from the comfort of their home.
Imagine if someone invented a dating website based on the most important criteria – being a Packers fan. Then singles could find someone to wear a cheesehead with on Sunday.
Packers fans, it is time to take a selfie in the bathroom mirror.
GreenBayPackersLovers.com is a new dating website geared toward connecting Packers fan. Yes, everyone knows true love begins and ends with a dinner discussion around the pros and cons of Aaron Rodgers' mustache.
Here is a description of the website:
DeMarcus Ware, Zane Beadles studying finance for better post-career optionsEric Edholm at Shutdown Corner3 days ago
Two of the NFL's top free agents signed contracts this offseason that would allow them, if they so chose, to put their money in a simple savings account and in theory be set for their lives.
And yet DeMarcus Ware and Zane Beadles, who signed deals that will combine to earn them more than $32 million guaranteed with their new teams, want more.
Not more money, necessarily. But more knowledge of how best to put it to use.
We all know that the NFL deals in funny money. To wit: A five-year, $50 million deal isn't worth 50 mil proper — how much of that is guaranteed? And also, there's the painful truth that the majority of the players in the league will have blown most of whatever they have earned, or perhaps all of it.

Isaac Aakre was accustomed to being a workhorse.
Josh Banderas wasn't, but he readily adapted to it.
By carrying the load for their teams, they had superlative seasons. Those culminate with their selections as the honorary captains of the 93rd World-Herald All-Nebraska football team that appears to be the youngest in history with eight non-seniors.
Aakre broke Danny Woodhead's Class A career rushing record while becoming the first Millard North quarterback to win two state titles. The Mustangs, who were 30-5 in his starts at quarterback, defeated Omaha North 17-14 in this year's final to regain the title they captured in 2010.
"I said on the field after we won that I kind of miss him already,'' Mustangs coach Fred Petito said. "We'll miss him on a day-to-day basis. He's such a gentleman and yet on the field so aggressive."
Banderas, a Nebraska recruit, was Lincoln Southwest's leading tackler and rusher. In his only season at running back for the Silver Hawks, the former tight end ran for 1,237 yards and 18 touchdowns in 10 games.
"We added a lot on his plate and there was no drop-off,'' Southwest coach Mark King said.
Aakre, who is uncommitted, and Banderas head a 24-man All-Nebraska first team that currently has four Division I recruits. The others are Casey Sayles of Omaha North (Ohio), Nathan Bazata of eight-man Howells-Dodge (Iowa) and Christian LaCouture of Lincoln Southwest (LSU).
Aakre is the only two-time selection.
For only the sixth time, a sophomore is on the top unit. Calvin Strong broke Omaha North's single-season rushing record to be the first 10th-grader chosen since Woodhead in 2001. Also in that select group are wide receivers Erick Strickland of Bellevue West in 1989 and Matt Spethman of Lincoln East in 1987 and running backs Bobby Bass of Omaha Benson in 1972 and John Brogan of Boys Town in 1944.
|Click the image above to see a special web project featuring the All-Nebraska selections.
Seven juniors also made the first team, including Millard West wide receiver Skyler Monaghan and defensive lineman Harrison Phillips. RJ Urzendowski of Omaha Creighton Prep, DJ Foster of Lincoln Southeast, Alec Ditoro of Papillion-La Vista, Trey Carr of Omaha Burke and Clay Fisher of Millard North are the others.
On the All-Nebraska offense are Monaghan and Urzendowski as receivers; Mike Milenkovich of Millard North, Matt Kraft of Millard South, Lee Carhart of Prep, Sayles and Foster as offensive linemen; Ditoro and Aakre as quarterbacks; Strong and Devin Washington of Lincoln Southeast as running backs; and Andy Bayne of Millard North as kicker.
Banderas is part of the first-team defense that has Freeman Coleman and Bryce Sosnowski of Millard South, Phillips and LaCouture as linemen; Nick DeLuca, Bazata and Banderas as linebackers; Jake Schlager of Class B McCook, Luke McNitt of Kearney, Carr and Fisher as defensive backs; and Jordan Bellar of three-time Class C-1 state champion Norfolk Catholic as punter.
Millard North has the most selections with five. Millard South had three, with two apiece from Millard West, Omaha Creighton Prep, Lincoln Southeast, Lincoln Southwest and Omaha North. There are 16 from the Metro Conference, which had seven of the eight teams in the Class A quarterfinals, five from the rest of Class A and three from outside Class A.
All-Nebraska and all-state selections are based on observations by The World-Herald staff and nominations by high school coaches. All coaches were emailed nomination forms.
Aakre, who sat out one game this season after a concussion, took the Mustangs through a schedule like none other encountered by an undefeated state champion in Class A. All nine regular-season opponents made the playoffs. The Mustangs also had five games decided by a touchdown or less, including their semifinal (38-35 over Millard South) and final.
Against Millard South, the Mustangs took the lead with 1:35 left only for their rival to tie the game on a Statue of Liberty reverse.
"I looked at him and Isaac said, 'Hey, we have to do it one more time,' '' Petito recalled. "It wasn't a matter of not doing it. It was a matter of getting it done."
Banderas' Silver Hawks were knocked out by Omaha North in the first round of the playoffs, with a recurring ankle sprain sending him to the bench early in the second half.
"I'll remember Josh as a horse, and a horse we were riding particularly this year,'' King said. "When he wasn't in on offense, we had a tough time scoring.
"We had some good players, but we were riding him. He got hurt a little bit at the end of the year and that might have been the difference in that last loss."

Don't Honor GIft Cards! Stay Away! – It's really absurd, someone spends good money to buy you a gift card, and they refuse to honor it almost as soon as they legally can.
They might follow the letter of the 2009 CARD act when it comes to gift cards, but not the spirit of not ripping your customers off, or alternatively ripping off the people who give their customers a thoughtful gift. Furthermore, when they decide your gift card is invalid, as a matter of policy they rip it in half and throw it in the trash before you can even respond. Absolutely terrible business practice. It seems Maggie Moos sees gift cards as a source of pure profit, something people pay cash for and shouldn't be able to redeem.
The Ice Cream is OK, but expensive and not better than Baskin Robins. Cold Stone creamery costs the same amount and tastes much better! Also, Cold Stone creamery doesn't have an expiration date or charge any service fee! Consumers, gift cards are great but if we don't punish shady businesses like Maggie Moos they'll never have a reason to stop ripping us off!
Light, milky ice cream and an atmosphere as colorful as its cute, cartoon mascot. – The Scene
Neon pink, turquoise and yellow clash merrily against black and white cow-spotted counters and tables. The story of Maggie Moo, the creamery's lovable mascot, is scribbled on the wall. Still, the place lacks the personality born of originality; it's an ice cream shop for the fast-food aficionado.
The Food
With two-dozen rotating flavors in a variety of styles, the menu can be a bit overwhelming. The cheesecake ice cream is divine, the cinnamon transports, and if you're a fan of chocolate or vanilla, your flavor rocks. For those who prefer their ice cream on the lighter side, this is the place--the soft-serve, fruit-flavored sorbet, and non-fat, no-sugar ice cream are both fantastic. Have that in a waffle cone, a waffle bowl, a cone dipped in chocolate, dipped in white chocolate, white chocolate with sprinkles--the possibilities are endless.
Heavenly flavors & mix-ins - almost gave birth – I am 6 months pregnant and almost gave birth after devouring that delicious first bite of frozen yogurt from Maggie Moo's. WONDERFUL flavors and mix-ins. Try the peanut butter and mocha, and add a topping if you're feeling extra naughty. Watch out Maggie Moo's - I'm headed back tomorrow, and there'd better be a doctor in the house because I am going to treat myself to some frozen intoxication. :)
Perfect family outing – I have to say that I had never been to MaggieMoo's, but was pleasantly surprised with the fun atmosphere and friendly staff. I took the whole family and didn't beak that bank. We had a ton of fun with the kids and look forward to going back again! Great Staff!!

FramesDirect.com is the premium online sunglasses store for educated, upscale eyewear consumers globally. Unlike overpriced brick-and-mortar retailers and online competitors who focus on discounts, FramesDirect.com delivers high-quality designer sunglasses and a superb customer service experience, but at reasonable online prices.
What makes FramesDirect.com different? Quality is our number one concern, especially when it comes to sunglasses, which are so vital to eye health. FramesDirect.com only sells designer sunwear, offering the largest selection of premium sunglasses available online.
As a company founded by eye doctors, FramesDirect.com was the first and remains the only online eyewear retailer that is staffed by certified opticians. In fact, the customer service phone center is staffed entirely by expert opticians, who are available to answer your questions 6 days a week.
The FramesDirect.com quality standard begins when we select only the best sunglasses to feature on our site. Virtually every designer who makes high-end sunglasses is represented here.
Whether you're in the market for classic shades, like aviator sunglasses or wayfarer sunglasses, or new trends in sunwear, such as foldable frames or patterned lenses, we carry the designer brands you have grown to love.
If you're an athlete looking for the best eye protection for outdoor sports, FramesDirect.com offers a number of popular, high-tech sunglasses with performance-enhancing, sport-specific features, such as specially tinted or polarized lenses and sweat-resistant, non-slip ear pieces.
Our demanding sunglass evaluation process has several steps. We will only consider sunglasses brands that are well designed and will please customers with regards to both comfort and style. In addition, all of our sunglasses follow best practice manufacturing standards.
FramesDirect.com only sells the best sunglasses available on the market today. We keep up with advances in sunglass technology and always strive to offer our customers the best options. For that reason, we offer the highest-caliber sunglasses, with options like polarized lenses and UV-blocking gray and brown tints.
Sunglasses have a long and varied history. According to the site Glasses History, "the earliest historical reference to sunglasses dates back to ancient Rome. The Roman emperor Nero watched gladiator fights through polished gems." All the better to see the brutal action.
We know that people wore sunglasses in China in the 12th century. These early shades simply had flat panes of smoky quartz for the lenses. Their main benefit was to protect the eyes from the sun's glare. But there is also antique paperwork that describes the judges in Chinese courts wearing these quartz crystal sunglasses to hide their facial expressions whenever they questioned a witness.
Cut to 1752, when James Ayscough started experimenting with tinted lenses. He hypothesized that blue or green tinted glass might help correct some vision problems in his customers.
In the next century, brown and amber tints were prescribed at this time for people with syphilis. (One of the symptoms of syphilis is sensitivity to light.) Still, these weren't proper "sunglasses" as we know them today, because they did nothing to protect eyes from UV rays.
The Museum of Vision notes that sunglasses became popular in Europe and the U.S. in the 1930s. Despite the fact that tinted lenses were available earlier, it took until 1913 for Sir William Crookes of England to create the first UV-protective sunglasses. Sir Crookes invented a lens that could absorb ultraviolet and infrared light -- and the modern sunglass was born.
When World War II began in 1939, there was an increased demand for practical and functional sunglasses for military soldiers and pilots. Because of this upturn in production and the "cool" factor of pilots, manufacturers began to market sunglasses to the everyday consumer.
The sun's rays, though beautiful and warming, can also be harmful to your skin and your eyes. Not only can the rays lead to eye disease, but the sun's glare can also cause distractions while driving, working, and participating in sports. Along with sunscreen, sunglasses are the most vital element for shielding yourself from the sun.
In a nutshell, here is how it works: Though they are invisible to our naked eye, the sun's rays carry UV radiation to the earth in two forms, UVA and UVB. UVA accounts for 95 percent of the rays, while UVB is more likely to break through the atmosphere on cloudy days.
When the UV rays reach us, they are mostly absorbed by the eye's cornea -- the top, transparent surface of the eye. Repeated exposure to damaging UV rays can result in eye problems such as photokeratitis, pterygium, cataracts, macular degeneration, and cancer of the eye, eyelid, or surrounding skin. The answer is simple: block the UV rays with sunglasses.
Recently, The Vision Council has come out with a report, titled "The Big Picture: Eye Protection is Always in Season," that examined sunglass use in adults and children in the United States. Their report used data from a 2013 VisionWatch study and also included information they gathered from observing consumers and through phone studies of consumers.
The study found that even though individuals know they should be wearing sunglasses to protect their eyes from UV rays, they often don't remember their sunnies, lose or break them, or neglect to wear them for other reasons. A new report from The Vision Council titled "Finding Your Shades, Protecting Your Vision," showed that more than 55 percent of American adults lose or break their sunglasses every year. More alarming, 27 percent of adults never even wear sunglasses.
The Vision Council also found that parents were neglecting to put eye protection on their children: "Over half of parents do not utilize sunglasses to protect their children's eyes from UV exposure, opening the door for life-long damage."
Many people don't know what they're risking. While short-term exposure to these UV rays can leave you with swollen or light-sensitive eyes, or even the temporary condition of sun blindness, it's the long-term damage that opticians now worry about -- diseases such as cataracts, macular degeneration, abnormal growths on the eye's surface, and eye cancer.
UV damage from the sun is cumulative. In other words, your sun exposure will add up over your lifetime, which could mean continuing medical issues and vision problems later on.
But there is one easy step you can take to fend off potential damage: wear sunglasses, everywhere, every time you go outdoors.
We can take a note from Australia, the sun-soaked continent where citizens have adopted a fun motto when it comes to the sun: "Slip-Slop-Slap-Wrap." It means: slip on a shirt, slop on some sunscreen, slap on a hat and wrap sunglasses around your head.
But most Americans don't know the risk of going without sunglasses. Although many are now clued in about the risk of getting skin cancer from the sun, "only 24 percent link UV exposure to cataracts," noted The Vision Council in a report called "The Hidden Dangers of UV: Keeping Your Eyes Safe." The report included an important notice: "A 2008 survey of more than 2,000 U.S. adults found that less than a third made their children wear sunglasses outdoors, compared to more than 80 percent who insisted on sunscreen." So the message of equal sun protection for eyes and skin clearly hasn't yet gotten across to the general public. The result: we risk harmful diseases of the eye.
Even though children spend more time outdoors than adults, their eyes are often unprotected by sunglasses. And it turns out children's eyes are especially vulnerable to UV. Children should wear sunglasses anytime they are outside because researchers have found that a child's eyes do not block as much UV light an adult's do.
The great part about sunglasses is that they are a fun fashion accessory as well as a necessary health precaution. So, most children (and adults) don't mind throwing on a pair of stylish shades before heading outdoors.
All sunglass lenses should at the very least filter UVA and UVB rays (look for a label that says it blocks "100% UV"). UV protection is unrelated to the darkness of tint a pair of sunglasses has, so be certain you are purchasing lenses that carry the full UV label. If you are an active skier or frequent driver, you may want to consider polarized sunglasses, which will also reduce glare. Polarization is a process that blocks intense reflected light from surfaces such as roads, water, or snow, and reduces glare. This helps ease eye strain and improve safety, but use caution in snow sports: in downhill skiing, polarized lenses may block light reflecting off icy patches, a danger skiers must stay alert to. (FramesDirect.com also sells designer ski goggles with UV-blocking lenses.)
There are also different tints to choose from that will make your view appear more gray or sepia. The Optician's Handbook wrote about lens tint in its 20/20 Magazine, saying that not one color tint fits all sunglasses wearers. Instead, "different lens filters can be tailored to enhance the visibility for selected activities, such as golf, tennis, clay shooting, or even computer usage." As new research appears documenting the negative effect of the blue light coming from computer screens, there may be an increased call for a brown lens.
Also consider the material the sunglasses are made from. Plastics, like nylon and zyl, are light enough for all-day wear. While plastic is a durable option, many styles, such as ever-popular aviators, are made from metal, or a mixture of both. Materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium will be best to reduce breakage or water corrosion.
The Vision Council states that sunglasses should be worn all year, since, of course, the sun is out all year. The key to increased wear is comfort. Find a pair (or several) of sunglasses that fit your nose bridge properly and sit comfortably over your ears. (The bridge fit is especially important for children who have an almost-flat bridge, and may do better with sunglasses that have a strap that goes around the back of the head.) If you regularly partake in active sports, consider wrap-around sunglasses, which offer greater peripheral vision. Wrap-arounds are also the best choice for young children and older adults because they stop horizontal and vertical UV rays.
Sunglasses block UV radiation and protect vital parts of the eye. By regularly wearing shades, you can reduce the UV rays that reach your cornea. Lucky for you, shopping for sunglasses online is easier than ever at FramesDirect.com. Sunglasses are sold at most retail outlets, but for the best selection, you should shop online.
Also, if you are embarking on a sport like skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, crew rowing, boating or fishing, you'll need top-quality, impact-resistant, high-end sunglasses that your local drugstore just may not carry. The best eye protection for these activities are going to be designed by a reputable manufacturer like Oakley, Maui Jim, or Costa, not some throwaway brand you can pick up in the local drugstore. And remember, always look for the 100% UV protection label and impact-resistant lenses.
At FramesDirect.com you will find over 2,500 sunglass options to choose from in a plethora of styles, shapes, tints, and colors. If you're having trouble deciding which sunglasses are right for your lifestyle or your face shape, you can pick up the phone and call 1-800-248-9427 to have one of the FramesDirect.com certified opticians help you with placing your order.
As 20/20 Magazine states, "Like cars, new technology in eyewear helps to create today's smart sunglasses." FramesDirect.com continually adds new brands and the latest sunglass styles to keep pace with new technology. Unlike sunglasses of old, today's sunnies use advanced filtering techniques to protect your eyes from sunlight, as well as use new materials to make frames and lenses safer, stronger, and more comfortable.
Consider going online and stocking up on a variety of sunglasses in different shapes and styles to suit all of your varying needs, and then keeping them near your front door. That way, saving your eyes from harm just takes that one little extra step before your walk out the door -- putting on your sunglasses.

FYI Whiny Racist Eric "My People" Holder….Your "Treatment" Could Be Worse You Should Be Rotting In Prison
As you sooooooo deserve.
The contemptible Eric Holder showing his true thugish colors:
"You don't want to go there buddy"
The only thing missing was the "or else".
Black; the new Teflon.
I am pleased to note that the last five years have been defined by significant strides and lasting reforms, even in the face, even in the face, of unprecedented, unwarranted ugly and divisive adversity. And if you don't believe that, you look at the way — forget about me, forget about me — you look at the way the Attorney General of the United States was treated yesterday by a House Committee. It had nothing to do with me, forget about that. What Attorney General has ever had to deal with that kind of treatment? What President has ever had to deal with that kind of treatment?
Holder; an indefensible ignorant race whore, doing what an indefensible ignorant race whore does… wield his skin color as a weapon.
BTW The Regime scrubbed Holder's race card playing remarks.

14 Things You Need When Civilization Goes Awry
Civilized society has imploded and it's just you and your 4x4 in a chaotic world. There's no electricity, cell phones are useless, and supermarkets are stripped bare.
But you're healthy, eating well, and able to travel at will. This is because you're utilizing the items you collected prior to civilizations crash (darn zombies). You had the foresight to gather key items (along with several hundred gallons of fuel for your 4x4) to ensure that you will survive the end of the civilized world.
What do you have in your cadre of survival gear? Let's have a look. There are things you need to take care of your body, because ultimately that's the number one priority. There are also things that will make your post-apocalyptic quality of life better.
Since the civilized world has ended, you can't saunter into the meat department at the supermarket, which means you have to hunt for meat if you want it. For this you'll need a rifle. One of our favorites is the Henry U.S. Survival AR-7. This U.S.-made .22LR-caliber rifle can be disassembled and the pieces fit inside the waterproof ABS plastic stock, which will float in water. When stowed, the rifle is only 16.5 inches long and when assembled its 35 inches long. The AR-7 includes a pair of eight-round magazines.

Fishing Pole
If hunting game isn't an option you may need to fish. You could lug around a fullsize fishing rod, but you may want to consider something like the Daiwa Mini Systems Travel Kits. Available in both Minicast (shown here) and Minispin Systems, they come with everything except terminal tackle. All of the components are housed in a hard case with built-in tackle compartments.
Contact: 562/375-6800, www.daiwa.com
Water Purifier
It is said that the human body can only go one week without water. Naturally, this makes getting clean drinking water a priority. There are a number of water filters available, and one that has a good reputation is the Swiss-made Katadyn Pocket Water Filter, which is part of Katadyn's Endurance Series. This hand-operated filter weighs only 20 ounces, removes/destroys protozoa and bacteria, and it makes one quart per minute. Katadyn also offers hand-operated and 12-volt desalinators.
Contact: 800/755-6701, www.katadyn.com
First Aid Kit
If you're injured you can forget about the immediate care clinic or calling an ambulance. End of the civilized world, remember? You are now responsible for your own first aid, and things like a simple infection can totally ruin your apocalypse. Adventure Medical Kits is one of the companies that offer an incredible range of medical kits. This is the Fundamentals kit that is part of the company's Mountain Series and it features a wide array of medications as well as contents for treating everything from bleeding to blisters/burns to fractures/sprains. The kit features Easy Care organization that arranges the contents by injury along with specific instructions to enable anyone to administer first aid quickly and confidently.

When hunting, there are times when a situation calls for a bow and not a firearm. Like if zombies or other nefarious adversaries are lurking around. You can't go wrong with a quality traditional or compound bow, but if you want something that's designed for easy transportation and quick assembly, you'll be wanting a take-down longbow like the Bear Archery TakeDown recurve bow system. The three-piece riser is made of black Dymondwood or exotic Bubinga wood, the limbs are fascor powered; backed and faced with high-strength black fiberglass, and the tips are handcrafted and layered.
Contact: 812/467-1200, www.beararcheryproducts.com
Another survival essential is a saw. When the saw is on the back of a machete that's even better. A saw has a variety of uses including lopping firewood into smaller pieces or cutting limbs to create a shelter or shelter frame. The Gerber Gator 25.7-inch, 18-ounce machete is forged of high-carbon stainless steel, has a serrated edge on one side and a fine edge on the other. It comes with a riveted nylon sheath.
Contact: 800/950-6161, www.gerbergear.com
Solar Charger (For Small Electronics)
Small electronics can be a big help (or pleasant diversion) after the apocalypse. Stuff like iPods, iPads, two-way radios, LED lights, cameras, night vision goggles, and games need to be recharged and that can be impossible if the electrical grid is down. However, if you have access to the sun's rays you can charge these types of items with the cool JOOS Orange portable solar charger. This 1½-pound unit is waterproof and submersible and uses the highest efficiency commercially available, monocrystalline solar cell and a replaceable lithium-ion polymer battery. You can capture solar energy to charge your devices immediately or store the energy in the replaceable on-board battery for later use. The JOOS Orange can also be charged from any USB power source.
